The verse of the name

From the letter Tet to the letter Ayin

An ancient custom gives each person a verse: the one that begins with the first letter of their name and ends with the last. No verse without a divine Name runs exactly from ט to ע: we then take the closest letter by sound, here from ט to א.

טוֹב יַנְחִיל בְּנֵי־בָנִים וְצָפוּן לַצַּדִּיק חֵיל חוֹטֵא׃

“A good person leaves an inheritance to his children's children, and the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous.”

Proverbs 13:22
